Tariffs don't work, and they won't change anything except to lower the standard of living in EU land.
The EU can't force China to do anything.
Neither can we.
When China decides that it is their best interests to change something then they will, but if anyone here believes that sanctions are the way to change China, then they are seriously misreading the Chinese.

nonsense. tariffs do work. tariffs saved (and are saving) the US light truck industry from devastation. Its one reason why Toyota and Nissan are building light truck plants all over the US.
the chinese currency peg has to go - you can't have free trade with a nation that manitans an artificial currency peg.
